  <dc:description>Unmarked Double-crested Cormorants (Phalacrocorax auritus ) were followed by airplane from Cat  Island and Spider Island, two nesting colonies in Wisconsin, to their first landing site. Cormorants flew an  average of 2.0 km from Cat Island (maximum 40 km) and 2.4 km from Spider Island (maximum 12 km). The  mean direction of landing sites differed seasonally for flights from Spider Island, but not from Cat Island,  Cormorants generally landed in Green Bay or Lake Michigan and rarely landed in inland lakes or ponds. The  most frequent water depth at landing sites for each colony was &lt; 9.1 m. Water depths  greater than or equal to   9.1 m were used less frequently than available within the maximum observed flight distance for each colony. The  average flight speed for cormorants was 61 km/h.</dc:description>
